Offered in Time.

falling off TO-DAY in the sale of bonds to the gov
ernment under the terms of the Treasury circu-

acting but Little Business.

SARATOGA Sept 27.-The Democratic State
convention met in Casino Rink. and at 1890 the
gavel fell. and D. Cady Herrick called the con-
venrion to order, and nominated Hon. George
Raines temporary chairman. The motion
carried unanimously. He was received with
applause and when it subsidized he addressed the
convention His illusions to Hill and Cleveland
were greeted with applause Somebody called
for three cheers for Hill, but they
were not given. His condemnation
of the foreign proprietorship of land al
fusion to General Grant were also applauded
The Chair ruled that all contests must be re-
ferred to the committee credentials, The
calling OF the roll was then commenced, and the
names of the prominent men were loudly
cheered as they were read.
\ The roll call developed many contested seats,
NEST of which have already been made public.
Committees resolutions, credentials and
permanent organizations were then announced.
A resolution was offered as follows:
Resolved That the laws of assessment and taxation
should be readjusted and reformed that all prop
erty shall ratably share in the support of the
ment and relieve farming and kindred pursuits from
the disproportonate burdens imposed under the pres
law, and that national legislation should be
modified and amended that agriculture shall longer
be embarrassed or impaired by unwise discrimination
The convention then took a recess till o'clock
this evening. At $50 P. NJ Chairman Raines
raped the convention to order. There were
not fifty delegates in their places. Sheriff
Grant, of New York, moved that as the commit
tee on contested seats would not be able to re-
port till late hour. that the convention take
recess till to morrow at 10 o'clock. The motion
was carried
There seems scarcely doubt that Cook and
Fitzgerald. the ipcumbents. will be renominated
by reclamation for Secretary of State and
Treasurer, respectively; and Senator Weap, of

Oswego. and Mr.. Tabor, of Erie, represent the
real contests of the convention for Attorney
general and there is likely to be fight, unless.
as it mas been rumored to-day, Mr.. Tabor with
draws.
There has been much talk of schism between
the Cleveland and Hill men, but if there be any
such there no outward demonstrations of it.
Both names seem to be greeted with equal en-
thusiasm and by the same delegations
dispatch to the New York Times says:
'sThere was conference in the executive man
sion at Albany last night which was attended by
several Democrats. who have more or less to do
with the affairs of the party. The fact may
perhaps possess special significance. though
it argues that the Governor is very we'll ap-
prised of the policy which will dictate the pro-
ceedings of the convention. and that he
acquiesces in it. An open rupture between his
friends and the friends of the administration
becomes, therefore, one of the remotest possi-
bilities."

Mr.. Cleveland. despite the efforts of his Mug
wump retainers to- day to explain the story, is
likely to find himself in a bad mess if he re-
fuses longer to make known the contents of his
letter to Fox, the superintendent of the Phila-
delphia Mint. This letter was written just be-
fore the Pennsylvania Democratic convention,
and it is asserted that it tanned order that
Randalls friends in the mint should not partici-
pate in the convention. A few of the politicians,
whose relations with Philadelphia pretty
close assert that they have the letter, while
a few others have had word from Philadelphia,
assuring them that the story is correct that the
letter was written. No one doubts that fact,
and the only important question is the exact
nature of the contents The President himself
is evidently determined to keep back the letter.
because of the remarkable discrepancy it will
show between his professions and his practice in
the direction of civil-service reform.

it was sufficient for the ministers to take the
